When I watched Liberal Democratic Party Secretary-General Ibuki Bunmei do his imaginary tray and chopsticks routine late last year, I thought the performance a spur-of-the-moment attempt at illustration which had veered wildly out of his control.
It turns out that operating a traditional eatery is his template for living:
Current LDP Secretary General Bunmei Ibuki outshines others with a book displaying his cooking expertise.Get this man an apron...and get him out of the Secretary-General's office.
Titled "Ibuki Tei Shikino Shokutaku" ("Four-Season Dining Table at Ibuki Inn"), the book is a compilation of essays on his cooking prowess and ideas on foods.
Please.

Nice to see a career professional with a hobby for a change. Monomaniacal devotion to your work will make you and your work suffer for it.
But what is it with Aso's title? "とてつもない日本"? Am I the only one seeing a fair bit of overcompensation for something here? Or is there some moderating nuance I'm missing?
Herr morén -
No, you have got it right. It is overcompensation with three asterisks and an exclamation point.
None of that namby-pamby utsukushisa for old Francisco.
